The Sayer

The Women of Mendia have a secret. They are called the Burrachi. Ordinary, and miraculous. Revered, and reviled. Throughout the ages, there have been whispers of their curious talents, uncommon favor, and deep protection. In a forgotten corner of the ever-changing world, they are content to dwell, and keep their strange ways. All of this makes for good tales, but are the Mothers of Mendia actually hiding something in their bloodline that sets them apart? They might never tell, but their covenants endure, and must never be broken. The children of the primal orchard know the truth. Obedience brings purity. Blessings carry burdens. Secrets demand fealty. This is the story of the girl who defied them.
